basically impossible to get a good feel of the surfaces, especially the right obverse field, but it looks like it could be anywhere from PR-64 to PR-67, looks pretty stunning in those pictures though. Leaning towards the upper end.

Looks like it just came from the mint yesterday... WOW
I agree with comment on right obv. field, if it's clean I'll say PR-66+ only because 67 comes with a big jumping of price.
Either way beautiful coin....

How about the apparent scratching between the motto and the upper wing edges on the reverse?

I saw that too frog, thinking it may be die polishing.

Further evidence in the lower right reverse field. Quite a drawback on a proof.

Love this coin...she's beautiful!
Went to PCGS to look at other examples for a comparison...but I couldn't discern whether there were similar die polishing lines on others or not...most of those were toned.
If she straight grades...PR66-67

I don't think there's an issue with right obverse field .I agree with Adam_E about the die striations on reverse . A real beauty PF-67

the obverse just pops! no less than PF66. it may be a hair short to make a 67 but the obverse has the look of a stellar piece

Beautiful coin, I think that the reverse has die polish lines instead of wiping scratches.

I'm in the PR66-67 camp as well.

Nice to see an clean example unobstructed by toning

I'd say a solid example of a PR-67. Really attractive eye appeal. Great pick up.
